A must have for the modern film photographer.
Now after I scan, I have just as much metadata that I would get on my digital photos.
Having something like the location makes my film shots just as accessible in Apple Photos as pictures taken with the phone’s camera.
The developer is constantly updating with new features too. I feel like I’ve always gotten great value from my subscription.
Great companion when out using film cameras
There is a reedit group for the app and the developer is very responsive and open for suggestions.
Great work keep on going.
Perfect logbook
Great App!
Response from developer
Hi! Thanks for the review and suggestion! I'm on it :)
各种功能都太好用
Great App, but…
Response from developer
Hi! You can change the language in your device's settings. This issue may have occurred because of changes to the keyboard language settings. Hope this helps!
Best light meter app!
Loving the app
Grateful this exists
Would be great to have some quicker interactions for changing exposure settings before logging a shot! I’m pretty sure the dev has said Apple Watch extension is in progress, but adding to the interactive widgets, or something using the Workouts API would also be wonderful.
Keep up the good work!
Another subscription …
Response from developer
Hi! The subscription is the only way I have to be able to keep the project alive while continuing to make it better with time. Because it's such a niche product it is not sustainable otherwise. I try to keep a reasonably low price (less than purchasing one roll of film per year) because I totally understand where your complaint is coming from. This subscription is also what allows me to keep the Lightmeter free to be able to help as many as possible to get more comfortable with shooting film and grow as photographers. Your data remains accessible even without a plan so you could cancel the subscription without worry if you don't use it for a prolonged period. If you use it regularly I think it's definitely worth it.
*USER BEWARE* Subscription Required.
Save your money and record everything the old fashioned way..pen/paper.
My bread and butter
As I encountered some crashes, I had to stop shotting film photos for a week as this app is the bread and butter in my workflows.
I talked to the app author got immediate response and my issue got fixed in mins.
Thank you!
Crash on launch
Also developer’s website domain expired so you can’t submit support
Response from developer
Hi! I've resolved both issues, there's a few ways to contact me there should be an email in the App Store page as well! You can search for Lightme on Reddit/instagram, write at Lightme.apps@gmail.com next time :) Hope you got the fix in the meantime! Stay tuned for more updates :) Giuseppe
好用但是闪退呜呜…求改善
Definitiva
mah un giro di prova c’è lo potevi anche inserire
capisco che tutti vorremmo prendere un caffè però :
se dovessimo mai incontrarci ti offro la colazione ma sopratutto provo, tento, di spiegare la differenza tra scrivere un app davanti a un computer e fotografare (in particolare in analogico)
Ci sono anche altre altre app con questi propositi ed opzioni ma come tutte, dopo un po’ non vengono aggiornate si perdono dati e sono contorte …
insomma nel 2023 basta l’app note integrata nell’iphone o un pezzetto di carta ed un lapis.
Records metadata to scans
My needs: I wanted to track metadata (GPS, Camera/Lens, Date, Time, ISO, Shutter, Aperture) as I took pictures on my film cameras. Then after receiving scans, apply that metadata so my pictures play nicely in the Photos App.
I was so surprised to see this app does it all! This removes the need for me to fumble around with exifTools to accomplish this.
This developer is my hero. Well worth the $12 a year this costs.
Response from developer
Hi! I'm super happy you've found your companion for your film adventures :) I'm gonna keep trying to make both apps better and more useful! Have a great day! Giuseppe
Logbook
Amazing addition
Response from developer
I'm really happy to hear that :) have a great day and thank you for the review!
Perfect logbook
My only issue is that I’m terrible at logging and remembering to record details as I’m taking photos so I end up completely out of sync with what I’ve got going on, but that’s definitely a failing on my end and nothing to do with this excellent app.
Response from developer
Hey! Thanks a lot for the honest review :) I totally feel you actually! I hope I can make the logging process so effortless you won't be able to miss recording a single shot! I'm working on adding shot logging from siri/Apple Watch ;)
